Police say the family's three sons were uninjured following a break in at their home by a band of robbers. The robbery occurred in the 500 block of Heather Lane at about 8pm Wednesday.

The three teens told police they were at home when three males entered into their bedrooms. Police say all of the suspects were described as Hispanic and were wearing all black clothing and gloves. At least one of the men had a handgun.
